"How about this, you call Uncle Hua and the others one by one and ask if anyone has recently inquired about your birthdate. Don't call Ren Chenle just yet," Ge Dongxu pondered for a moment before he spoke.

"You suspect Uncle Ren? That shouldn't be the case. Even if Uncle Ren has issues with me, he still had some feelings for my dad back in the day, and it's unlikely that he would go so far as to have someone cast spells to harm me. Besides, there's no benefit for him to do so," Liu Jiayao immediately shook her head in denial upon hearing this.

The acquisition storm had passed, and Liu Jiayao did not want to dwell on the past unpleasantness with Ren Chenle, still calling him Uncle Ren.

"Sometimes people do bad things without needing a benefit. And I'm not suspecting that Ren Chenle had someone cast spells to harm you, but that someone obtained your information through him. Your blood type is not common knowledge, right? Only, since your relationship with him is not good now, if it truly was him who leaked the information and you called to ask him, he certainly wouldn't admit it and might even become alert to our suspicion," Ge Dongxu replied.

Liu Jiayao was an intelligent woman; she nodded upon hearing this and then picked up the phone to call Uncle Hua and others one after the other.

Although Uncle Hua and the others were quite puzzled as to why Liu Jiayao was suddenly inquiring about the specific time of her birth, they did not consider it a big deal. They asked out of curiosity, but when Liu Jiayao did not give any specific explanation, they did not press the matter further but simply told her that apart from discussing her birth in the early days, it had been a long time since any of them had talked about her birth, let alone the specific time.

"It seems very likely that this information was leaked from Ren Chenle," Ge Dongxu was right beside Liu Jiayao and could clearly hear Uncle Hua's and others' conversations. After Liu Jiayao hung up the last call, he said gravely.

"So, what do we do now? Should we call the police?" Liu Jiayao asked, though she immediately felt there was a problem with her question as soon as she asked it.

How could they possibly call the police about such bizarre matters?

"There's no rush. If we really can't track down the person behind the casting spells, I will think of a solution. For now, you call Ren Chenle and arrange a meeting, saying you have something to discuss with him," Ge Dongxu said after some thought.

By 'think of a solution,' he naturally meant asking Elder Feng for help and having him involve the special department for an investigation.@@novelbin@@

But Ge Dongxu did not wish to bother Elder Feng with personal matters, nor did he want to be involved with the affairs of the special department, revealing his existence or owing them favors. He would only take this step as a last resort.

"Let's just leave this matter as it is. You've already taught the other party a lesson, and they probably know better than to trouble me further. Besides, you said casting spells is not so easy. I'll just avoid donating blood in the future, and they won't be able to do anything to me," Liu Jiayao did not make the call but spoke with a hint of worry in her eyes.

After all, Ge Dongxu was young, and those in that mysterious circle were all enigmatic. How could Liu Jiayao rest assured letting Ge Dongxu continue pursuing this investigation? If they really got to the bottom of it, what then? Was he supposed to engage them in a spell battle?

"Don't worry. If the people in that circle were ranked, I would definitely be considered a top-tier master. The one who cast the spells is no match for me," Ge Dongxu, knowing what Liu Jiayao was worried about, held her shoulders tight and reassured her.

"Really? But you are still so young! Isn't it said that the longer one cultivates, the deeper the cultivation power?" Liu Jiayao said, somewhat incredulously.

"Your statement isn't wrong, but it's a general trend and there are exceptions. Just like I'm still in high school, and yet, I already own several companies," Ge Dongxu spoke with immense confidence emanating from him.

"You're not lying to me?" Although Liu Jiayao believed what Ge Dongxu said, she was still somewhat apprehensive.

Because she was completely in the dark about that circle.

"Rest assured! If I wanted to harm someone, I wouldn't need to trouble myself so much. With just some physical contact, I could make the person seriously ill, or with something like one or two strands of hair, I could cast spells that make them wish for death. Why would I need to go through the hassle of getting your fresh blood through a hospital?" Ge Dongxu explained.

Liu Jiayao's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Ge Dongxu, "Didn't you just say that casting spells requires very strict conditions and consumes a lot of cultivation power? If it's like what you said, then wouldn't one truly be able to do whatever they want?"

"In the entire Huaxia Country, with over a billion people, how many truly possess Mysterious Arts? And among those with Mysterious Arts, how many have cultivation like mine? They are indeed as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Besides, most of these people live in seclusion, exclusively pursuing the greater path. Those like me, still mingling in the mundane world, are probably unique. How could ordinary people ever encounter such individuals?" Ge Dongxu explained with a mix of laughter and helplessness.

After all this talk, it turned out that Liu Jiayao still couldn't believe that he was one of the top masters in that circle.

"So, will you also one day sever all worldly ties, live in seclusion, and exclusively pursue the greater path?" Liu Jiayao's delicate body trembled slightly as she asked softly.

Ge Dongxu, thinking that Liu Jiayao would look at him with shock and admiration, was surprised by her sudden question about severing worldly ties, but he quickly hugged her tight and replied, "Don't worry, how could I bear to leave you? If cultivating truly required me to abandon my family, I would rather not cultivate at all!"

"I never said I'd marry you and have your kids, you know!" Liu Jiayao let out a sigh of relief, but her face flushed red when she remembered Ge Dongxu's reference to abandoning his wife and children.

"Heh, we're like this already, if you don't plan to marry me and have my kids, then who do you plan to marry and have kids for?" Ge Dongxu was surprised by her words, then grinned naughtily and laid his hands on Liu Jiayao's lofty peaks, kneading them.

"Hey! What are you doing, you scoundrel? Can't a girl choose not to marry anyone? I don't want others to make fun of me for marrying a younger man," Liu Jiayao exclaimed, struggling to free herself from Ge Dongxu's 'devilish' hands.

"Anyone who laughs at you, I'll beat them up!" Ge Dongxu declared.

"Okay, okay. I know you're good to me and affectionate, but even if you're capable now, you're still young and have experienced very little emotionally. Can we not talk about these topics right now?" Liu Jiayao said gently touching Ge Dongxu's cheek with her hand.

Ge Dongxu understood what Liu Jiayao was worried about, and knowing it was not the right time for such discussions, he nodded and said, "Then go ahead and call Ren Chenle to see if you can arrange a meeting with him right now."

Liu Jiayao nodded and picked up the phone once more to dial Ren Chenle's number.
